Global Stock Pitch Competition

YIS’ annual flagship event is the Global Stock Pitch Competition. This competition is the culmination of investment skills gained during the year and provides High School students hands-on mentoring in financial analysis. Students (either individually or in teams of two) create a “best stock idea” and analyze a publicly traded company–sometimes meeting with company management. Each student/team writes a report on their chosen company with a “Buy” or “Sell” recommendation and then presents and defends their analysis in a written report and brief to a panel of University Professors and Industry Professionals.

How it Works

The state and global competitions are hosted by YIS. The winner from each state competition advances to the global competition, where one team emerges as global champion. The state competitions are held the first two weeks of April and the global competition will be held on May 17, 2019.
